Valorization of Wastes for Sustainable Development: Waste to Wealth

Valorization of Wastes for Sustainable Development highlights the various valorization of organic and non-organic waste to offer a way forward to a sustainable world. Categorizing the various types of waste valorization mainly for renewable fuel production but also for other valorizations utilizing organic and non-organic waste, this book offers the reader a comprehensive view of various waste valorizations together with their potential applications. Split into four sections, chapters cover the general scenarios and challenges of current waste management, the valorization of waste specifically for renewable fuels as the alternative energy source to depleting fossil fuels, other types of waste valorizations categorized into organic and non-organic waste for various applications, and the future prospect of waste valorizations with possible plans and strategies for effective global waste management. Comprehensive discussion of the various types of global waste Discusses the latest technologies used for waste valorizations Includes future prospect and strategies for waste valorizations INDICE: Section one: Overview - Current scenarios and challenges 1.
